Soon afterward, Marie was rushed to Memorial hospital in Wood- Stock on Saturday, and she died early Monday, It seems that Rose and Len have had a heavy cross to bear. Our prayers go out to them. Misunderstanding I talked to Theresa Sweeney and she tells me that there seems to be a misunderstanding about their dance instruction classes. These classes are held for the Senior 'Teen Club members only. Hope this clears up any misunderstanding there might have been. Our 'Teen Agers , With all the talk about how terrible the 'teen-agers are today, it gives me a lot of pleasure to say it surely doesn't apply to our teen-agers. For instance, the Frank Sweeneys are so proud of their Mr. and Mrs. gold pocket lighters the Senior 'Teen Club presented to them at Christmas time.

Providing some real groovey music was Butch Bujak and his hot accordion. - Qh yes, Butch's cute gal friend, Leona Arndt, was there too. The girls surprised yours truly with three beautiful liquor bottles/fitted into a most stunning gold case tray that locks. It was meant for our bar, but we think It's much too pretty to have dowr&, in the basement so have brought it upstairs where everyone who comes in can admire it.

The Junior John Rheinhardts were hosts and hostess to a gay group which included Alice and Jim Quaiver, Marge and Bill CasTey, Arlene and Frank Bartos Pat and Mary Linnane and Larry Deja. Games were played among them the hilarious carrot game which is loads of fun. A good time was had by all, but then how could it miss with this bunch of funsters. Another gay party was held at Leonard and Vicky Bottaris' house. Jean and Frank Parisi and children, Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Gerambik and son, Mr. and Mrs. Ray Franklin and daughter, Carole, and Mr. and Mrs; Jack Lavin made up this merry group. Vicky tells me they took movies, danced, talked about the weather which was a good topic and had gobs of food for their midnight buffet. The highlight of the evening was to have been the presentation of Miss 1958, better known to us as tiny Elaine Bottari. What Hoopened?? Elaine slept right through the whole party. Still another party was enjoyftd by the Ray Grotes, Glen Uhles, ferry Rogers, Bud Uttichs, W. Laurences, B.

We were all happy to see Evie Devine among us again despite her stiff knee which has made her virtually an invalid for the past year,, but didn't keep her from Enjoying many of the zany games which were played throughout the/evening. Bernie Laurence was surprised with a birthday cake, candles and all at twelve o'clock--Age??? He didn't say, but the blaze from the candles was terrific. The evening was capped off with a bpuntiful buffet which was needed at this point and which was prepared by the gals of the squares. Dorothy's .baked beans were the sensation of the evening--Just gotta get that recipe. Sneaky • This column is for those who want to tell somethin' about someun', but want to remain anonymous. It seems the only time Betty Laurence has trouble with flies is New Year's Eve. With the coming of the summer, we should all like to know her sure fire remedy for getting rid of them. Ask her the next time you see her and she will tell you I'm sure. Harvey Devine enjoyed the shrimp dip at the New Year's party so much that Evie, being the good wife she is, spent two hours New Year's day preparing him a man size bowl. Last time we heard Evie wasn't talking to Harvey. It seems Harvey just hates shrimps and just couldn't eat it. Shame on you Harvey. By now . Until next week.

So much has been accomplished this year as to make it probably the most outstanding in the hospital's entire history. The big new addition was started and is nearing completion and will be providing care for the sick long before this time next year. Tittle, in summing up the year, says that many willing hands of volunteers, as well as many volunteer dollars, have helped the hospital and, its services as well as contributing toward the-building project. The largest group 6f volunteer workers are, of course, the almost 1000 wom&n who make up the hospital's auxiliary. With their, president, Mrs. Alice Joslyn, this group is constantly busy providing nickles, quarters and thousands of dollars for the hospital. The small amounts, are from card- parties and bake sales; and the largest amounts from the yearly spectacular known as Holiday Hospitality Day. Money is provided day to day from the operation of the auxiliary's Gift J and Thrift Shop, where volunteers j serve as clerks, bookkeepers and buyers. Holiday decorations for the hospital are presented by other volunteer groups, particularly the garden clubs who see that decorations are tastefully arranged in strategic places. Tray decorations are made by youngsters of various Scout troops who want to provide a gay touch for those who must be hospitalized during the holiday season. Bert Hanson, administrator of the hospital, says that the building of the addition is the most important thing that has ever happened to him in his career. Hospitals are usually built about once in a generation ahd it is seldom that a man gets to see a dream building take shape. Both Hanson and Tittle look -forward to the day when the building can be dedicated for use. However, the hospital is rendering the best service possible in sftfte of ,the often limited working facilities until that long-awaited day ar* rives.
